Chapter 211

Is it really a good idea to do this?

Takumi was planning to have the emperor detained for a few days?

According to Liyue's laws, drunk driving could lead to a one-month detention.

Emmm…

Keqing looked at Takumi with a very strange expression.

So did the others.

"That's not good, right?"

Ganyu felt a little embarrassed.

Wouldn't that be too harsh on the emperor?

Takumi chuckled.

"Just kidding."

"However, next time, you can have someone keep an eye on Childe."

"If anything happens, just arrest him and let him cool off for a few days."

Childe, who was drinking with Zhongli in the distance, suddenly felt a strong sense of malice.

This made him look around cautiously.

What was happening?

Why did he feel like someone was plotting against him?

His face was full of confusion.

Zhongli noticed his strange expression but didn't ask.

Instead, he calmly sipped his drink, enjoying the moment.

Diona's talent was truly impressive.

Even if she experimented, she always managed to create something delicious.

Many people in Liyue had fallen in love with Diona's special wines.

They found them absolutely delightful.

Of course, there were also many Mondstadt residents in the tavern.

They were excited to taste Diona's drinks in Liyue.

Although the tavern's decor looked odd—more like a children's playground—the drinks were fantastic.

Plus, the atmosphere was welcoming.

Some guests even decided to visit regularly.

After finishing their drinks, Takumi and his group left together.

Meanwhile, Klee and the other little ones stayed behind to continue helping Diona.

The tavern would remain open until the early hours of the morning, and they would return home afterward.

However, Klee was bound to get sleepy soon.

She would likely leave early.

It was hard to tell how long they could keep this enthusiasm up.

Now that the pub had just opened, everything was still fresh and exciting.

But over time, the excitement might wear off.

Diona, being the bartender, couldn't be at the tavern every single day.

She needed time to relax and have fun too.

That night, Ningguang, Ganyu, and the others stayed at Takumi's manor.

By the time they returned, everyone was slightly tipsy.

They had all drunk quite a bit.

Standing on the second-floor balcony of Takumi's house, they admired the brightly lit Guiliyuan in the distance.

Ningguang couldn't help but sigh.

"Standing here and looking at the night view below is quite something."

"It's really beautiful."

"I should get someone to decorate my house too."

Thinking about her own house, Ningguang decided it was time for some renovations.

"You can just hire the construction team directly."

"Ganyu's house should be renovated as well."

Hearing Takumi's words, Ganyu, who was already dozing off, suddenly snapped awake.

"I have a house too?"

She was utterly confused.

Why was she only learning about this now?

Takumi nodded.

"Yes."

"You have one too."

"I originally planned to get one for Keqing as well."

"But she said she'd rather just stay with me."

Hearing this, Ningguang and Ganyu exchanged strange looks.

After a moment of thought, they figured they were probably overthinking things.

Keqing was just someone who hated dealing with unnecessary trouble.

After understanding the situation, Ganyu sighed helplessly.

"Actually, you don't have to get me a house."

"I already have a place to stay in Liyue Harbor."

Why would she need another house?

She barely had time to live in one.

Takumi shook his head.

He couldn't exactly tell Ganyu that he was giving her the house just to raise its market value, could he?

"It's a benefit for you."

"You can't refuse."

"You've worked tirelessly for Liyue all these years."

"Giving you a house is the least we can do."

Ningguang glanced at Ganyu and spoke matter-of-factly.

Ganyu had dedicated years of service to Liyue, and she deserved this reward.

Hearing Ningguang's reasoning, Ganyu felt resigned.

She couldn't really argue against it.

After all, she had earned it.

This time, Ganyu simply accepted it in silence.

After chatting for a bit longer, everyone went off to rest.

Takumi, however, didn't sleep right away.

He stayed up, waiting for Klee and the others to return.

Once they arrived, he made sure they were taken care of before going to bed himself.

The next morning, Ningguang and the others woke up, had breakfast at Xiangling's restaurant, and then left to return to work in Guiliyuan.

Takumi stayed at home.

He waited for the little ones to wake up.

It was nearly ten o'clock when they finally got up.

The little girls sluggishly came downstairs, still half-asleep.

Seeing this, Takumi sighed and said:

"Go wash your face first, then come have breakfast."

"I've made porridge for you."

Hearing this, Klee suddenly perked up.

"Good morning, Brother Takumi!"

"Stupid Klee, it's already noon!"

"Hehe\~! I overslept."

As soon as Klee greeted Takumi, Yaoyao started complaining.

It was almost noon.

"Good morning" was definitely not the right phrase.

Listening to the little ones, Takumi could only smile helplessly.

"Alright, go brush your teeth and wash up first, then eat."

"Just have a small meal to fill your stomach."

"Lunchtime will be soon."

Hearing this, Klee and the others quickly ran off to freshen up.

Before long, they returned and started eating the meal Takumi had prepared.

While eating, Diona excitedly shared the tavern's earnings with Takumi.

"Brother Takumi, last night we made 100,000 Mora in just one night!"

"I think even more people will come tonight."

"Hee hee, business was great on our first day!"

Diona was thrilled.

She hadn't expected to earn so much just from opening a tavern.

Hearing this, Takumi nodded approvingly.

"That's really good."

"Keep up the good work."

"After breakfast, you should get ready for the day."

"Noelle and the others should be arriving soon."

"I'll have them meet you later."

Takumi hadn't forgotten that Noelle and the others were scheduled to arrive today.

He just didn't know exactly when.

Hearing this, Klee and Diona quickly finished their food and hurried off to work at the tavern.

Takumi also got ready to head out.

He drove to his office.

By noon, a car slowly pulled up at the General Affairs Department in Guiliyuan.

As it approached, the Qianyan Army stopped it.

Inside, someone rolled down the window.

"Um, hello."

"I'm Amber, from Mondstadt. I'm here to see Mr. Takumi."

"Here's my identification."

After Amber spoke, she handed over a document to the Qianyan Army.

At the same time, a motorcycle descended from the sky.

It was Barbara!!
